Hirsutism is caused mainly due to hormonal imbalance. Though this condition doesn’t lead to physical pain, this might be why depression in many women. This condition arises when male hormones are produced excessively in a woman.
At Fiore, we believe in the power of IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) to combat excess hair because it is highly effective, safe, reduces future ingrown hairs, and offers long-lasting results.
Our IPL treatments can effectively reduce the density, thickness, and visibility of unwanted hair over multiple sessions. However, since hirsutism is hormone-related, hair can regrow if hormonal imbalances persist.
IPL is safe for most skin types, but how well it works depends on your skin colour and hair colour. If you have darker skin, there is a bigger chance of side effects if it is not done right. That’s why it is important to go to a qualified professional.
IPL hair reduction can be used on many parts of your body, including your face, legs, arms, underarms, and bikini area.
People who are pregnant, have certain skin problems like eczema or psoriasis, have had skin cancer, or are taking medicines that make skin sensitive to light should not have IPL. It’s important to talk to a trained professional first to make sure it’s safe for you.
Bear in mind, hair growth varies from person to person. Some hair may grow back after stopping IPL treatments, but usually it will be finer and lighter than before. To keep results, many people have occasional maintenance sessions.
